Maybe North Korea is simply going to print maps without the U.S. on them? Makes more sense, no?

I can't believe he is still alive and not assassinated- let alone still making threats. And now I'm seeing commercials against a nuclear Iran (whose country is essentially destroying itself) rather than North Korea which is just wanting to taste blood and threatening us and the world daily/weekly. Why shouldn't we bomb their silos and military facilities back to the stone age?
I'm all for it this point. No-one should be able to threaten a country and all of its citizens like that and live. We should also board their ships...I dont understand the mentality that we are currently operating under...
For to win one hundred victories in one hundred battles is not the acme of skill. To subdue the enemy without fighting is the acme of skill.
What is essential in war is victory, not prolonged operations.
Victorious warriors win first and then go to war, while defeated warriors go to war first and then seek to win

I'm curious to see what new toys the US breaks out if this thing goes down (hopefully not).

Is it possible that they may have suitcases already in postion in the States? And that their desire to wipe us off the face of the earth is possible?
